Holy shit, I didn't realize he was an actual kid voicing that character and I always assumed he was an adult playing that role. He and the other kids were apart of my saturday mornings for years. RIP.

That's a major bummer. Don't do drugs, children.

It was always very cool that Recess had so many actual children play the characters. The only one among the main cast who wasn't played by at least a teenager was Spinelli. Hey Arnold was mostly (or all?) kids as well.
